Investigation via Electron Microscopy and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy of the Effect of Aqueous Zinc Ions on Passivity and the Surface Films of Alloy 600 in PWR PW at 320 °C
Aqueous zinc ions lower the corrosion rate of Alloy 600, which helps lower the radiation dose rate in pressurized water reactors (PWRs). The influence of zinc on the electrochemical behavior of Alloy 600 in PWR primary water (PW) at 320 °C was investigated using a combination of electron microscopy...
